The Supreme Court just overturned a federal ban on bump stocks, the device that let the Las Vegas shooter injure more than 500 people and kill 60 within minutes.

80% of Americans supported the ban — even Trump!

SCOTUS has once again defied the will of the people.

@rbreich But the Supreme Court member do not live in Las Vegas and have for sure enough security to be safe from someone copying the shooting from Las Vegas in Washington. So: They can decide in a ideological strict way without being confused by human right like the one to live.

Just attending a 3-day workshop on the danger of abrupt ocean circulation changes.
Discussions are quite worrying. E.g. in 35 to 45 % of high quality models, convection in the open North Atlantic collapses in the 2030s due to . -> Major climate disruption. Not good.

@rahmstorf May I guess how and will comment this?
“Germany is too small to make a difference. So we have to stick to the path other countries are taking so that we can safe out living standard And by the way: Scientists have always been wrong in the past.”
Ok. That's just my guess. But the last part of the statement is correct in a strange way: reality has almost always shown more dramatic consequences than assumed. the first part not: most countries do more than we do.

Billionaires aren’t just supporting Trump for the tax cuts.

As Peter Thiel once admitted: “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.”

Make no mistake: The goal of American oligarchy is to tear down democracy itself.

@rbreich Besides very often enjoying to think about your opinion and thoughts: To generalize in the way you do it here is - in my eyes at least - not helpful.

@auschwitzmuseum Ja, die Nationalsozialisten waren auch vielfache Kindermörder. Und die will in ihrer Tradition stehen.

My sister, who is a few weeks away from being a registered RN told the following story about a very Good Boy.

A patient with schizophrenia suffered from periodic hallucinations of people who weren't there. He got himself a service dog, and one of the service dog's chores was to go up and greet people on command.

So: if the dog went up to greet a person, the person was real. And if the dog did not greet a person when commanded, the person was a hallucination.

Service dogs are all goodbois.

@ergative These kind of easy solution to really complex problems alsways faszinate me. I think, I never would have so much fantasy to come up with something like that.

@auschwitzmuseum Wir sollten immer daran denken: Nazis sind Mörder. Auch Kindermörder. Egal, was die sagt.

@GottaLaff This shows once again that any kind of authoritarianism kills. This also applies when it is called Trumpism.
